John,
The reason I thought there might be an OEM applicaton that senses
fuel pressure is because I saw reference to fuel sensors in a book used
at my
local Advance Auto Parts. (Perhaps they were only
switches...nomenclature seemed ambiguous in certain places) This fully
illustrated book, which has clear illustrations of 100s various OEM
sensors and such, lists several for "fuel." I tried to get a copy
thinking it would be useful...they wouldn't part with it. 
(for example, I found the perfect Ford OEM temp. switch to control my
oil
cooler's electric fan...screwed in w/o any mods) 
Thanks for your input.  Steve
